Now on to this week's spark!

Create something using patterned paper!

There are SO many fun options for this one!  Here's what I made ...

In addition to using patterned paper on the bottom of the orange notecard, I also used a scrap to paper piece the cushions on the chairs.

Now it's your turn!  I'm looking forward to seeing what you create this week using patterned paper!  And don't forget to share your spark by leaving a comment on this post with a link to your creations!  Happy Stamping!
